AQUA DRAG RACER
| 48 inches | Replacing the Bubba Tub in May 2014, Aqua Drag
Racer, at six stories tall, propels guests through four lanes of head-to-head competition at the
speed of 15 feet per second.
THE BLACK HOLE
| 48 inches if riding alone; 36 inches if riding with an adult Two-per-
son tube; 1,000 gallons of water per minute; all this in the dark. Do we need to say more?
While not the wildest ride in town, it sure is dark in there.
THE BLAST
| 48 inches if riding alone; 36 inches if riding with an adult | Two-person tube
ride inside a waterworks where all the pipes are broken. You cannot get any wetter.
THE BOMB BAY
| 48 inches | You stand on a pair of doors that open, dropping you down a
76-foot slide. You're gonna need a lot of nerve to stand on those doors and wait for the drop.
BRAIN WASH
| 48 inches | Extreme six-story tube ride with a 53-foot vertical drop into a
65-foot funnel; tube holds two or four riders.
DER STUKA
| 48 inches | Speed flume descending from a six-story tower.
DISCO H2O
| 48 inches if riding alone; 36 inches if riding with an adult | Four persons in
a raft are ushered down a tube into a 1970s-era nightclub complete with lights, music, and a
disco ball.
THE FLYER
| 48 inches if riding alone; 36 inches if riding with an adult | A calmer
toboggan-style ride more suitable for families with smaller children.
MACH 5
| 48 inches | Mat slide. For a really fast ride, grab a newer mat.
THE STORM
| 48 inches | Half slide, half toilet bowl. This ride is exhilarating and disor-
ienting; when the lifeguard begins hollering, just stumble toward his voice and give him a
thumbs-up.
THE SURGE
| 48 inches if riding alone; 36 inches if riding with an adult | Four-person raft
ride sends you flying down 600 feet of banked turns. Wild!
You can take in all the attractions at Wet 'n Wild in 1 day, especially in the sum-
mer when the park is open until 9 p.m. It is a huge park, and a whole day playing in
the water under the hot Florida sun will poop you out. Try to get back to the hotel
for a midday nap, and don't plan on dragging already tired kids to a restaurant for a
sit-down dinner.
